Rotation Studies at SIV By Albert
Southern Illinois farmers can grow corn on level crop land by nitrogen fertilization within a three year meadow rotation. The study at SIU Agronomy Research Center, with Illinois agronomists, compares three year alfalfa meadow rotation to continuous corn and tests nitrogen rates of 50 100 and 200 pounds per acre. Top yields varied 50 to 109 bushels per acre with rainfall influencing results.
